As Badgerman mentioned in another post 'Celestine' and anything else on the unreleased 'Pump' single. Can't remember or find the tracklisting! :(

Two remarks on Pete's listing:
Joyrider - 2 Fat Ladies (Sure is Pure)!
Lopez - unreleased INSTRUMENTAL version as used on BBC website in 1995!

No discussion possbible.

There are more Don Solaris era tracks floating around than one would think or easily remember. I bet you haven't thought about this one for a while.

Mondays

:wink: I'll let you see if you can figure out where it surfaced. No cheating.

Again as with Gorgeous the release of Thermo Kings makes this a difficult one. I agree with Chisler and Bonded, however am a little stuck on the rest. Don't want the 2nd discs loaded with too many mixes.

Let's not forget Chisler & Bonded were on the Japanese Don Solaris album as bonus trax. Not making things easier, eh?

One more

Skin Up, Pin Up

Question is if the exclusive (then exclusive) tracks are untouchable or could be reissued under artist name. Any presedance?

Haven't looked anywhere (honest!), but wasn't that on the "Foundations" compilation? :)

Can any download tracks go on ? For me Rollerballs the best so far from the Don Solaris era.

The Natural mix of Joyrider is essential. TFLAAD mix may be too long, how about an edit to wet our tastebuds, or people who haven't got it.

I guess it needs to be decided if the bonus discs should have 808 remixes only or if remixes by other artists may be included too. I'd be very disappointed if Sure is Pure mix didn't make it and I wouldn't accept an edit! :)

as mark stated there's a real danger of this bonus disc being 'thermo kings' with a couple of extra tracks. is there any more unreleased material, demo sessions, mixes etc. from this era?

sure is pure, full length - anything else would be outrageous!

i could always finish my joyrider remix for inclusion :D

As with all the other bonus disc proposals, as long as "Joyrider (Two Fat Ladies)" and "Lopez (Instrumental Mix)" are included on the disc, then I'd be a happy man - anything else would be a bonus (e.g. mixes of Bond, Lopez, etc) :)

What about different mixes of Pump (wasn't it due to be released as a single at some point - mentioned on Esprit's site at one time, or were all the tracks eventually released on "Thermo Kings")?

Just a thought...
